@nodefoundation is a non-profit committed to the preservation and expansion of contemporary digital art.

Larva Labs founders & artists Matt Hall & John Watkinson are returning to join in a guiding role for the future of Punks -  alongside advisory board members @gordongoner and @snowfro

Interesting. I wonder what Matt and John's guiding roll will be? Kinda seems like its still Yuga under a new umbrella. If we hear more than one announcement on what they're doing before the end of the year I'll give them the benefit of the doubt.

yeah i’m curious too but i think it’s a big step in the right direction with CryptoPunks being held by a non-profit focused on digital art 

Best owners imaginable for punks imo

At best, it sets a new precedent on how established brands can evolve in this space. If done well, hopefully others will follow.
